Ding Yunyi, who was the most powerful man in Fujian, was responsible for food and grass when he arrived here.
And he was said to be responsible for food and grass, but in fact He Renlong didn't take him seriously at all. He was sent by the emperor himself. He Renlong couldn't afford to offend him, but there was no problem if he just supported him like this, right?
His seven subordinates were also very dissatisfied, saying that instead of being treated like cowards here, they might as well just go back to Taiwan and live freely as a local emperor.
Ding Yunyi smiled bitterly and asked his brothers to give up this idea. He could not go anywhere until Chongzhen's new appointment came.
At the same time, when the rogue bandits were meeting in Xingyang, the governors of the three sides of Shaanxi Province, the crown prince Taibao, and the Minister of War, Hong Chengchou, gathered generals in Xinyang, Henan Province, and sent troops from the Eighth Route Army to suppress the rogue bandits!
At this time, the rogue bandits put on a decisive battle posture, took advantage of the Ming army's division of troops, and rushed towards Xinyang in a large force, even raising the banner of "capture Hong Chengchou alive".
Hong Chengchou was a calm, brave man, and well versed in the art of war. He was not angered by the rogues. Instead, he ordered the Seventh Army to just attack and ignore Xinyang. He personally led the deputy commander-in-chief He Renlong out of Xinyang to fight the rogues!
Opposite Hong Chengchou is the most powerful, most capable, and most courageous battalion among the rogue bandits: the "Yellow Tiger" Zhang Xianzhong Battalion!
Zhang Xian had read books and received military training. He was resourceful, courageous and courageous. He called himself the "Eight Great Kings" and the "Yellow Tiger" in the army. He had 50,000 bandits under his command and falsely claimed that he was 100,000. He was very powerful.
Hong Chengchou did not dare to neglect, and with He Renlong as the main force, he mobilized all his troops to fight against Zhang Xianzhong.
As soon as the war broke out, Zhang Xianzhong's camp showed a different fighting capacity than other bandits. These bandits all fought bravely and were not afraid of death. They faced the officers and soldiers and rushed forward, screaming for their lives.
Although He Renlong was arrogant, he fought bravely and was not afraid of death. He was known as "Crazy He" in the army. After He Renlong found out, he was not angry but happy, and from then on he often called himself "Crazy He".
As soon as the two armies engaged in battle, they fought together, and it was difficult to tell the difference. From the morning to the end of the fight, there was a lot of blood. It was difficult to tell the winner.
Hong Chengchou, who was supervising the battle, saw that the bandits were strong and it was noon, so he hurriedly ordered Ming Jin to withdraw his troops.
He Renlong had beheaded many people. As soon as he entered the camp, everyone came to congratulate him. He Renlong looked proudly and looked around the generals. His eyes stayed on Ding Yunyi for a while, and then he said with a smile: "Some people said that the rebels should divide their troops into four groups.
, go straight to Fengyang, the main force of the rebels is here today, and I killed everyone in fear, so Fengyang, I think, is as safe as Mount Tai?"
All the generals laughed together. They all looked at Ding Yunyi, but Ding Yunyi remained silent.
"Deputy He, don't be careless." Although Hong Chengchou sounded like he was scolding, his tone was full of praise: "The thieves want to break out, we will hold them here, and when the Seven Route Army completes the pursuit, the main force of the thieves can
I will annihilate you here. Deputy He has been fighting for half a day. It must have been hard work, so take a good rest and prepare to fight again!"
"Why rest!" He Renlong laughed and said: "There was a killing in the morning. I killed the bandits and they were frightened. I was taking advantage of the situation to fight, and I killed him so much that he didn't dare to look at me, Xinyang!"
Hong Chengchou put it nicely: "Soldiers always need to eat."
However, He Renlong didn't care: "Our troops all carry dry food. The commander-in-chief, please give me a bowl of cold water, which is enough. After the brothers have filled their stomachs, they can fight. After the victory, I will treat the brothers to a good meal!"
"
Hong Chengchou was overjoyed: "If the imperial court has a talent like Vice-President He, why worry about the rebels not being wiped out? Vice-President He is a true warrior! On the day of victory, I will personally entertain the generals at a banquet!"
He Renlong laughed, got on his horse, and asked loudly: "Brothers, have you eaten and drank enough?"
"Eat enough, drink enough!"
"Can you go with this town to kill the rebels and make some achievements?"
"Yes! Yes! Yes!"
A mountain roared like a tsunami, and it was majestic.
"Brothers, follow me and kill!"
Seeing this army surge out, everyone was filled with admiration and envy. He Renlong's army was so fierce, what else could the rebels have to worry about?
Hong Chengchou looked around at the generals and exclaimed: "The imperial court has such a good general. I think the rebels will be defeated in a few days. You need to cheer up and watch how Vice-President He kills the enemy with all his loyalty!"
The battlefield was quiet for a while, but the sound of fighting suddenly started again.
Tens of thousands of troops fought together on the battlefield risking their lives, with blood and blood flying everywhere, and those who watched the battle were all awe-inspiring.
Ding Yunyi stretched out his hand: "Where is my telescope?"
Duan San'er quickly handed over the telescope, and Ding Yunyi took it without saying anything and looked at it with concentration.
He Renlong's army was brave, and Zhang Xianzhong's camp was not bad at all. One wave fell, and another wave rushed up, layer upon layer, never ending, both sides were fighting for their lives.
Ding Yunyi admired him in his heart after seeing it. Although He Renlong looked down on him and spoke rudely to him, in terms of bravery alone, he was one of the best among the officers and soldiers.
As he looked at it, he gradually realized that something was wrong, but what was wrong? Ding Yunyi couldn't tell for a while...
...
"Eight Great Kings, He Renlong will use all his strength!"
Hearing this, Zhang Xianzhong showed an unknown smile: "Okay, very good. Madman He has fallen into my trap. He will definitely be killed in this battle. Once Madman He dies, I will have nothing to worry about."
That’s it.”
"Father, King Gao Chuang ordered our troops to think of suspicious soldiers here. After attracting Hong Chengchou, they quickly evacuated the battlefield and marched eastward to take Fengyang."
Zhang Xianzhong looked to the side and saw that among his four favorite adopted sons, the youngest was Li Dingguo, only fifteen years old. He was very skilled in martial arts and was known as "Little Yuchi".
Zhang Xianzhong nodded and said: "Yes, King Gao Chuang said so, but the opportunity to capture and kill He Renlong is right in front of him. If he misses it, he may not have such a good opportunity in the future. He Renlong is the sworn enemy of our rebel army."
Enemy, wait until I kill him and then turn eastward and it won’t be too late!”
As he spoke, he shouted: "Sun Kewang, Ai Nengqi!"
"exist!"
Zhang Xianzhong pointed his horse whip forward: "Liu Wenxiu is fighting bloody battles in front, and He Renlong has fallen into my scheme. You two use all your troops to surround and kill He Renlong, and attack Hong Chengchou all the way, so that he cannot be separated! Today
Unless He Renlong is killed, we will never withdraw our troops!"
"Yes, we will never withdraw our troops until He Renlong is killed!"
Zhang Xianzhong turned to Li Dingguo and said: "Hongyuan, don't miss this opportunity. I will hand over all my soldiers to your control. No one will be left behind. They will all be thrown into the battlefield. Bring me He Renlong's head!"
"Yes, foster father!"
He Renlong, who was on the battlefield at this time, did not know that a huge disaster was quietly approaching him...
...
"No! No! Something bad is happening!" Ding Yunyi suddenly cried out: "Where are Zhang Xianzhong's two wings? Does he just want to face the front and not care about the two wings?"
Duan Saner and Wang Wei were confused when they heard this. What are the two wings?
Ding Yunyi didn't have time to explain to the two of them, so he jumped down from the height in a hurry: "Quick, I want to see the commander-in-chief!"
...
"It's bad!" Almost at the same moment, Hong Chengchou also shouted loudly.
This well-organized governor also discovered that something was wrong. When the bandit leader Wang Jiayin died, his subordinate Zhang Xianzhong led 2,000 people to surrender to Hong Chengchou of the Ming Dynasty. Hong Chengchou organized Zhang Xianzhong's subordinates into a tribe, and Li Zicheng defected to
Gao Yingxiang, Gao Yingxiang, and Li Zicheng turned to Shanxi, Henan and other places, and sent people to secretly contact Zhang Xianzhong. In addition, Hong Chengchou controlled Zhang Xianzhong too strictly, so Zhang Xianzhong rebelled against Hong Chengchou and responded to Gao Yingxiang's army.
Hong Chengchou knew Zhang Xianzhong's cunning very well.
After the decisive battle broke out, Hong Chengchou had been wary of Zhang Xianzhong, but the bloody battle between the two armies in front of the battle line gradually made Hong Chengchou feel relieved, but now he quickly discovered that something was wrong.
"Why are Zhang Xianzhong's wings so empty? Only the Chinese army is fighting to the death?" Hong Chengchou said anxiously: "He must have ambushed troops on both wings. When both sides were exhausted, he rushed out in one fell swoop. Deputy He was in danger!"
Before the subordinates understood what the commander meant, they suddenly heard a man running up and shouting: "Commander, there must be an ambush on both sides of the rogue bandits!"
Hong Chengchou was surprised, who discovered it so quickly? He took a closer look and saw that it was Ding Yunyi who had just been transferred!
Before he could reply, the situation on the battlefield had suddenly changed.
All the ambushes led by Sun Kewang and Li Dingguo surged into the battlefield.
Zhang Xianzhong relied on Liu Wenxiu, the most valiant fighter under his command, to hold He Renlong back on the frontal battlefield regardless of casualties. When both sides were about to fight, he attacked with the most elite troops, causing He Renlong's troops to fall into chaos.
Sun Kewang also ordered his subordinates to continuously penetrate and divide the officers and soldiers into pieces, and then surrounded and annihilated them one by one.
At this time, the officers and soldiers who were suddenly attacked on the battlefield were in a mess, unable to look at each other. No matter how brave He Renlong was, the defeat was difficult to reverse.
At the critical moment, Hong Chengchou was about to send troops to rescue, but a large number of rogue bandits commanded by Ai Nengqi ferociously rushed toward Hong Chengchou's camp.
After Zhang Xianzhong succeeded in his plan, all the bandits were in high spirits and fought bravely. They shouted "Capture Hong Chengchou alive, capture and kill He Renlong", filling the mountains and plains with great momentum.
Hong Chengchou hurriedly ordered to divide his troops to resist, while watching his subordinates. He saw that all of his subordinates were frightened and confused. Some even proposed to retreat immediately, reorganize their troops, and fight again in the future.
Hong Chengchou was furious: "Damn it, our troops can withdraw, what will Deputy He do? Do we want them all to die here?"
Ding Yunyi took a breath and took a step forward: "Commander Commander, I am willing to save Deputy Town He!"
"You?" Hong Chengchou glanced at him doubtfully, with disbelief in his eyes: "General Ding, the battlefield is no child's play. The thieves are so powerful and they are attacking my camp. How can I give you any troops?"
Ding Yunyi said loudly: "It doesn't take much. I know that the Commander-in-Chief has 800 elite cavalry under his command. I just want the Commander-in-Chief to lend me 300 of them!"
After Ding Yunyi said one sentence, the entire camp fell silent for an instant.!~!
